Load Disturbance Test

This project compared different PID tuning methods (Ziegler-Nichols, Cohen-Coon, CHR) for controlling flow using a control valve. An open loop test was conducted to determine response rate and dead time, which were used to calculate PID values for closed loop tests. Cohen-Coon provided the fastest rise time and most stable response without overshoot or oscillation, reaching the setpoint in 1.6 seconds, compared to 23.5 seconds for Ziegler-Nichols and 3.9 seconds for CHR with no overshoot. Cohen-Coon was determined to be the most effective tuning method based on its stable, fast response.

Discussion

This project was done to viewing the controllability of flow control by


using tuning rule of different various methods namely Ziegler-nichols,
cohen-coon, chien, hrones & reswick (CHR) by valve equipment (FIC 21).
The aim of the study to compare the value of flow control calculation by
using fixed value of PV and MV. The flow process is self-regulating process.
An open loop test has been performed to the flow control loop by making
the MV changes for 5%. The purpose of the open loop test is to obtain the
response rate, RR and dead time, Td. These both value is used to
calculate the optimum PID value that has been used in the closed loop
test. Set point used was fixed at 2m3/h from 6m3/h of process span.
Initially stable value of MV was set at 46.5% with P and I at 1.2 and
4.3 respectively at manual mode then the graph was printed out. From the
graph, respond rate (RR), dead time (Td), and time constant (Tc) by using
tangent method. The RR value was 0.6851 s -1, Td 1.3044 s, and Tc 2.6087
s. The value of P and I was tabulated in graph below.

In FIC21, software in the computer required the Kc and I as input


value. The value for each Kc and I was used for the next test which is load
disturbance and set point test. In load disturbance test, the controller was

set to manual mode firstly. Then the MV value was increased by 5% from
46.5% to 51.5 % and holds for 3 sec after change the controller to
automatic mode. The process respond was observed until it stable at set
point or oscillated to infinity. The result obtain was plotted in table below.

The value for overshoot, undershoot, UCL and LCL in the graph show
the value at the set point in (m3/h). The dash, -indicating no value for
given terminology. For an example, at Cohen-Coons method there is dash
in both overshoot and undershoot value column, means that for CohenCoons method, there is straight increase in value to the set point without
shooting out value before it stable while dash in UCL and LCL means that
for Cohen-Coons method, there are no oscillation occur before reaching to
the stable value.
From the table above, it can be conclude that from the 6 method
that was tested, the most stable and reliable method goes for CohenCoons method with faster rise time 1.6s. it is about 14 time faster than
Ziegler-Nicholss method and 2 time faster for CHRs of (load disturbance,
no overshoot) method. There is also no oscillation occur to reaching the
stable value. And without overshoot, undershoot, UCL, and LCL for CohenCoons method. The process respond curve shown in the appendix.
